Remember Red Dawn back in the mid 80's? Thought not, well this was a bonkers movie about the invasion of the USA by the mighty Soviet Union and a group of High School kids single handed battle with those damn Commies, daft silly fun but entertaining.
Well fast forward nearly three decades and we get this, which is very similar but is actually based on a series of books and the action and oppression is now set in Australia.A group of school friends go on a weekend trip away from it all, when they return they realize the Country has been invaded by an un-named Country (North Korea?) and their family and friends have either been killed or 'imprisoned'
Minus points first, well this is one cheesy movie, the end credits in particular, the dialog's pretty wooden, but on the plus it's quite humorous at times and the action is as good as some Hollywood blockbusters.
Likable, but largely forgettable.
